ANU Region Scholarship

The ANU Region Scholarship aims to reward academic excellence in secondary school studies, recognise involvement and leadership in school and community life in regional areas, and provide assistance with living costs and costs related to tertiary studies. This scholarship is designed to support students from regional and rural areas of Australia who are commencing undergraduate studies at the Australian National University. The scholarship provides financial assistance of $6,500 per annum, paid in semester installments of $3,250, to help offset the costs of relocating to Canberra and living expenses while pursuing tertiary education. Fifteen scholarships are available annually, awarded based on academic merit and regional location. The scholarship continues for up to 5 years based on satisfactory academic performance. Applicants are automatically considered through the ANU Admission Scholarship and Accommodation Application System if they meet eligibility criteria and elect to be considered for scholarships. The scholarship is currently unavailable but has been offered in previous years.
